Day 21: Two Scenes

Scene 1

Curtains open on a computer room full of students working diligently.  Many are having soft conversations about the task at hand while others are working silently.  The majority are putting the finishes touches on presentations, getting ready to present on Monday.

Dan enters the room and approaches the teacher, holding out a ¨late to class¨ slip.


TEACHER
                                   Welcome to class! Glad you could make it today!


DAN
**hands pass**
                                  Sorry I´m late. I forgot we were down here.  What are we working on?


TEACHER
                                  We are finishing up our presentations for Monday.


DAN
                                  Cool...cool...
**pause**
                                  So...How do I start?

The teacher looks incredulous.  Dan turns towards the camera, which freezes on student shrugging comically.

End scene



Scene 2

Curtains open on a computer room full of students working diligently.  Many are having soft conversations about the task at hand while others are working silently.  The majority are putting the finishes touches on presentations, getting ready to present on Monday.

Teacher looks over to see Dan speaking ¨covertly¨ into his headphone speaker.



TEACHER
                                  Dan! Who are you talking to? Are you ordering pizza?  Hey guys, Dan´s
                                  ordering pizza! Make sure you tell him what kind you want!

DAN
**into phone**
                                  Bro, I gotta go.  My teacher is getting on me.
**hang up**

TEACHER
                                  Dude...our pizza!

Dan looks incredulous.  The teacher turns towards the camera, which freezes on teacher shrugging comically.

End scene





Author's note: Since my mom will yell at me about naming students, the student is not actually named Dan
